The Chihuahua is known as smallest dog breed of the world. That’s why it fits even on a potholder 😉 These potholders are the perfect kitchen accessories for all Chihuahua Lovers. With double knitting the potholders become quite tight and look good on the backside, too.

For the motif "LOVE" are two different versions included:

• classic double knitting – the letters will appear mirrored on one side
• advanced double knitting – the letters will appear corrrectly on both sides

You will find a detailed explanation in the pattern as well as in the knitting chart.

More double knit patterns are available in my shop in this collection:
